Through a Glass Darkly was not about a kaka, it was about a mental anguish some people suffer.

Same for the Sindrom. One can probanly concentrate on the anti-human aspect of it, but in reality the film is like a work of a psychiatrist - examining the society and its ills.

So in some sense Muratova is indeed looking at start, through the haze of melancholy, indifference, alianation, even outright hatered.
